Summary of traveller reviews

JJ's Hostel in Mirissa offers a fantastic stay with its exceptionally clean rooms and bathrooms, a beautiful pool, and a great rooftop area. The staff are consistently praised for being friendly and helpful. While it's a relaxing place, some guests note it's not the most social, making it ideal for travellers seeking a peaceful retreat.

Stay at JJs hostel was a pleasant experience. Very neat and clean property. The pool is really nice and location is very central. Staff is courteous and helping. However, they dont hold group events and common areas are not used very much by the residents. So that social side is a little bit missing but overall it was a great experience. Highly recommended.

Awesome stay. Very nice and peaceful. Everything was neat and clean. The pool was great to beat the heat. Nice pool table at the terrace too! The host is okay too. Not much happening at the hostel as the host said that activities are arranged for only a few months during the peak season (even though the dorms were full when I was staying)
